Guitarra...--¿Cómo le entra el agua al coco?
--(How does the water enter the coconut?)
--Poco a poco.
--(Little by little)
The joke is not really that funny in English as it is in Spanish, wholly depending on the rhyming. Another funny joke Nick's mom told me was:
--¿Qué es más rápido -- la luz o la diarrhoea?
--(What is faster -- light or diarrhea?)
--La diarrhoea porque no siempre puedes prender la luz antes se viene la diarrhoea.
--(Diarrhea because you can't always turn on the light before diarrhea comes.)
It was good to be around Nick's family last night. They were really comforting and supportive of me, besides being simply hilarious. Nick is a lucky guy to have such a cool family and I am a little jealous. My family is really great though but they are not so easily welcoming as Nick's.
I feel like I cannot really write right now. I am in the up-stairs lobby of CEDEI, Billy's rap music is playing, and I just can't concentrate. Billy is excited because he got a Cuencan girl's phone number last night and is working on a date for tonight. I will probably go along for moral support.
I'll add pictures from today, Saturday, and Sunday when I get back to CEDEI on Monday.
cheers
